Less than 24 hours since I returned from that screening of Jaan-e-mann, I was back inside those darkened halls, this time to watch director Farhan Akhtar’s Don, his remake or his contemporary version – whatever he likes to call it – of the 70s Bachchan starrer.

Jaan-e-mann is a fine directorial accomplishment but a failure in the writing department. Watch it nevertheless, because it’s Diwali and because every now and then some senseless entertainment is not a bad thing.
